Lord Krishna Mural & 55th Kerala Day

Dear Friends

My new Kerala mural painting of Lord Krishna. I have used acrylics on canvas. Hope you all like it.

Lord Krishna, Avatar of Lord Vishnu

18x14 inches, Acrylics

Kerala Mural Painting on Canvas

For non-Keralites, today is Kerala Piravi (Birth of Kerala) Day. The state of Kerala was formed on 1 Nov, 1956. Prior to that it was three independent provinces Malabar, Cochin and Travancore. Kerala got it's name after the first ruler, Keralian Thamburan, who ruled one of these provinces.

Mythologically, Kerala was formed when Parashuram, the sixth incarnation of Lord Vishnu, flung his axe from Gokarnam to the sea and the sea receded to form Kerala.

Happy Kerala Day To All The Malayalees (& to all others as well:)) Around The World!

Wow, that is so beautiful Deepaz. You are truly a gifted artist. You should sell on Fine Art America. Your paintings are really awesome. Thanks for the nice comment on my blog regarding the El Dia post. :O Take care.

Super!!! I have a soft spot for murals, though I have never done them. I guess growing up near a temple with a lot of murals on its walls (which, unfortunately is in a pathetic state today) is the reason. And of course, Lord Krishna is my favorite too... Looking forward to more from you....

@Welcome Ramakant. Thanks a lot for your kind words. I do understand when you say about watermarks but plagiarism is so much in vogue these days, many of my friends had been awfully affected by it, that I thought this is the least I could do to preserve my work. Sorry for that distraction. Hope you would understand and let that not hinder your visit and comments in this space:)

@Thank you very much for the blessing Seema and Sanjeev:)
